So, I need to order a new throttle cable, which will be run for a carbed motor.
How do I run the cable to the carb link bar? Is there a pulley or channel or something to make the bends easier? What do I need to do to get the leverage to actuate the linkage? Do I need to order a special throttle cable (longer or somehting?) I'm dumb, pics are helpful. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) Zach |

isnt it ideal to have the cable pull from the center of the crossbar, that way if it flexes, it flexes at the same rate for both carbs?
I could put it off to the side easily, but i thought that the crossbar flexing would make syncing hard to do right |

I bet the throttle cable breaks before you get noticeable flex in the cross bar. |
